Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This traces Reegan’s moral descent: from verbal threats and expulsion orders to cold-blooded murder of a UN insider. It escalates the threat from conspiracy to lethal action, and ties Lennox’s death directly to Reegan’s sphere of influence, now infiltrating even UNIT’s own resources.
